Stories and scars are the only proof of a life well lived.
Every scar has a story, and most stories have a scar.
Sharing and comparing stories and scars connect us in ways impossible by any other means.
It helps us understand.
Not all stories are happy,
and some scars will continue bleeding long after the initial cut was made.
The sweetest smile masks the greatest pain, as those with the most scars smile through it all.
The wisest tell the best stories, in shades of good and bad, mistakes and triumphs.
We learn and grow with every word.
Someday when our good lives are over, this is all we become: A story and a scar.
The stories we told in life are repeated with fading accuracy,
as we become the legends we once looked up to.
And a scar on the hearts of those whose lives we touched.
